to the person who wrote in saying "I'm in my mid 20's and still feel lost and behind"; as long as you are still alive & thriving, you will never be behind no matter your circumstances. It legit took me 29 years to understand that everyone grows & glows at their own pace. I'm now in my early 30's and still live at home with my parents. I still don't have my drivers licence because of my crippling anxiety but I've never been so content and at peace and full of joy with myself because I finally shed the weight of worrying about others & what they thought of me & what was expected of me. I believe its about letting go of what's weighing us down rather than becoming someone new. Refine & redefine your core, fam ❤️❤️❤️
29 still live with my parents feeling so behind in all aspects so when I saw the title I had to click
@@hellenakinyi4750 29 is still so young! You have so many years ahead of you to discover what truly brings out the most authentic, raw, fearless & powerful you. I wish for you the best xx
Yes, 29 is young, but honestly... It's not that young. I'm 38, and I have the experience of 1) greatly benefitting from making certain financial decisions at a younger age, and 2) wasting time in certain areas and potentially missing out now that I'm older.
It is 100% true that growth, understanding yourself, and finding your passions is a lifelong process, as I'm definitely still figuring a lot of things out. But just be mindful, because the years do fly.
@@ericachan452 Indeed, it does. You raise a good point on how time certainly does fly. Id love to hear more on how you feel about this opinion. I guess for myself, I see too many people in my age group complain about how they "wish they did XYZ when they were younger" or "if only I was X years old again I would be happier" and they feel like its too late for them to start. Things like buying your first house, starting university, changing career paths, making new friends, getting braces lol, becoming a parent, finding love, following a belief or discovering faith, moving across the world, imho I don't think there's an age too old for those things. Seeing yourself as "too old" or believing its "too late to start" is another weight to your yoke that you don't need and life is way too precious to be worrying about "If only...".
I'm making a silent video blog, I'm a Turkish audience, I'm waitingg too :) 💛
Michelle is literally so relatable and authentic; I think this is one of the reasons why I love her content dearly. Everyone I know personally always goes out with friends and does spontaneous things while I’m an homebody like Michelle.. and have only a couple of friends in my life. I would’ve never thought someone could be as relatable in terms of living life and such.. I’m just amazed by her huge following and amazing supporters who seem to feel the same way as me. She really deserves this and more🤍🤍
🥺♥️
Exactly💗
Agree 100%
So SO true, feeling the same way
yess everyone you said is so true!
The words “Living Alone” has given so much of us great comfort and validation ❤️ well done for that
I love how you're open about being shy and living such a simple life as a TH-camr. I feel like when I watch lifestyle youtubers they're so outgoing and busy out and about but Michelle is so relatable and so comforting to watch.
The feeling of loneliness is so real. Also, mid-30s here, thought I had it figured out when I was 28 and scored my dream job only find out it was not anything I thought it would be. I had to restart at 35, so there is no deadline to have it figured out, as long as you have the drive and courage to see things through and start over you will be okay. Also remember, when you are starting over, you are not starting from scratch you are starting from experience! I promise!
ty for sharing!!
Thank you for sharing that😊
👏🏾👏🏾❤️
I know people who are in their 30/@!#; 40s and still haven't figured it out...you shouldn't measure life with age. Some people are 18 and extremely smart and well adjusted and living like 30 yrs old and there are 30 years old still have no idea...but it's also important to do what you want to do and no matter what everybody is doing. Comparison is killing. Most people are depressed because they keep comparing their lives with others.
Thank you!
🥰🥰🥰🥰
i remember when you were around 100k subs and still living in korea. it's been a long way since then and we're all so proud of u! thank u for ur lovely vlogs (they accompany me when im studying late at night lol) u're the first youtuber i really followed
Thank you so much🥺🥺♥️
"I have my hair done and nowhere to go. " what a mood 😂
The feeling behind and wanting to find a group of solid girlfriends is a big thing I get sad about monthly lmao :( especially on weekends!!
A 15min vlog?? We're so in for a treat! Whatever you're going through, it'll get better from here
Congratulations! Excited to see what’s in the future for you 😁
😂I literally screamed "ME" when you said you only had one friend and you were mostly horizontal. Making friends as an adult is such a struggle.
You said it it’s so hard like why lol it almost feels impossible a lot of ppl can’t keep a conversation or are just simply boring
“It’s something that we all did together” 🥺 queen Michelle right there
Congratulations Michelle! It’s so crazy to see that you’ve reached 1 million subscribers and you honestly deserve everything! I still remember finding you on TH-cam while you were doing vlogs in Korea and I have literally not missed a single video from you since then (I always watch from beginning to end). So love how genuine you seem and you’re a huge role model to me! I have also always related to you on a lot of topics especially loneliness 😂 but Again congrats on 1 million!! ❤️
Thank you so much!! So blessed to have supporters like you🥺🥺♥️ TYTY!!!
Her eating cake being unbothered is such a mood 😂❤
Longing for a solid group of close girlfriends and trying to figure out social skills is super super relatable, I really appreciate your authenticity, it is nice to know there are others out there who struggle to make friends too.
Michelle Choi: living example of if you are good you attract good.
1000% agree that your subscriber community is one of the sweetest out there. Huge congrats 🎊
Resonate with this so much!! This is so wholesome and organic
Congrats Michelle! Always love your authentic chill vlogs ✌🏼
Omg hey joee I'm a fan of yours, keep up the good work! 😊
Thank you!!🙏🏻☺️☺️
OMG MY 2 FAVORITE TH-camRS OF ALL TIME😭
All the other times I’m home… probably horizontal… watching Korean dramas
😂 same meesh, same.
“I have my hair done and I have no where to go” love it! It hit me hard. I frequently feel the same way when I have done my morning routine😂
Michelle’s videos are like therapy for me and definetly she deserves all this success
Congrats on getting a million. You're a rare jewel, so genuine, classy, funny, and very caring of your subscribers
almost at that mid-twenties period in my life - both terrified and excited to see what's to come 💗 love how the q&a questions shows that we're all just figuring it out collectively at the end of the day
I've never commented on anyone's video before but it's an exception for you. I remember searching for "skincare routine" on youtube and stumbled upon your channel, which back then you had only 2 videos. Since then, I've never stopped coming back to watch more vids from you. And fast forward to today, whenever I have breaks in between work, after work, before bedtime- I'd rewatch your videos. They're on replay till I decide to stop simply because it makes me feel calm every-single-time. Please continue to do more, because most days, your videos are what keep me going and it might sounds weird and hard to believe but it's true, atleast for me! If there's something I'm grateful for in life, it'd be to have something i can watch over and over again without getting bored but just all the good feels when things get hard and that'd be your videos. So thank you and you truly deserve the number of followers because without you realising it, you've touched many simply by just posting a 10-15 min vids. Keep growing and I truly hope you'll be able to achieve your goal because I just wanna see more blessings coming your way because you're always finding ways to help and make your parents happy. Love love you, Michelle.
😭😭😭😭 thank you so much… 🥺♥️
Omg so relatable. Love all your vids Michelle!
1 mil and still the most grounded, wholesome TH-camr out there. You deserve everything!
Congrats on 1 milly!!!!! Also love ur chatty vlogs the most 🥺 (glad I’m not the only one who despises the TH-cam performance comments 🥲)
been watching your videos for 3 years now and I just want to say I’m so proud of everything you’ve accomplished! Your videos have always given me a sense of comfort and you inspire so many of us. Congratulations on hitting 1M! Can’t wait to see what great things the future has in store for you! 💗
im almost 40 and i feel lost and alone. Going through a divorce and about to live alone for the very first time in my life. I saw the name of your channel and thought it would help with my fear and maybe help me feel excited instead of terrified.
I’m rooting for you❤️
@@sorores6997 awww thank you so much
hello michelle. your “living alone” title gives me so much inspiration and validation living alone and working abroad. ily 💜 youre a piece of peace 😌
*CONGRATULATIONS on hitting 1mil! GOALS!* Your vlogs are such a vibe, so relaxing and exciting to watch 🥰
congratulations for hitting 1 million Michelle! You deserve it so much and we all love you! ✨🥺☺️
Blessed with the best!! Thank you so much! 🥲🥲♥️
never commented before, but I have to say that you're really one of my favorite youtubers!! i'd love to hear more of your thoughts cause you're soo relatable and grounded although you've got a million subscribers. hearing you that you're basically a couch potato with one friend and being a person with anxieties and insecurities makes me feel comfortable and makes me think that you still can be successful even though you're not extroverted. it's amazing how you can really connect with people you've never personally met before. i wish we could be friends michelle! ❤️ at least you've got a great and supportive community. you deserve the best!
늘 잘 보고있어요. 한국어 자막이 있어서 영어공부도 도움이 돼요 💕
Your videos literally make my day they are so relaxing!! I love seeing all of your meals you make too!!! 🥰
Also congratulations on a million!!!
Thank you so much!!🥲😊♥️♥️
@@michellechoii it is 2:53 in the morning in my contry right now but I'm watching your video hhhh
6 :39 drama name please
when i tell you that her videos give me such comfort, they actually do.
Really appreciate how authentic you are; I find your genuine words of advice encouraging, as I’m sure many others do 😊 Thanks for sharing your own struggles too, I’m glad there’s this space and community where we can grow together and send positivity to each other! 🙂✨
Totally can relate to “hair done, and no where to go”
'I have my hair done and no where to go' - Like a Queen!! Love you Michelle
ahh Michelle i seriously LIVE for your vlogs so much! literally so relaxing and it's so fun to watch snippets of your life! 🥺🥺💗 thank u for making my friday so much better i love u!
Aww thank you so much…🥺♥️
Your video is so healing ,after graduating for five years ago,living alone just make me feel so lonely and sad,but now I have the confidence to start living alone at this moment.
Hi Michelle from Korea! Thank you for providing Korean subtitles. I was starting watching your channel to study English but I was obsessed with your charm. I think you grew up with the full of parents' love. I can feel it. I'm going out on a limb here, 가끔씩 미쉘이 좀 슬퍼보여요. 너무 많은 생각을 하지 말고, 때로는 단순하게- 일어나서 아침먹고 점심먹고 일하고 잠자고- 하루를 보내는 게 내 마음 정리에 도움이 될 때가 있어요. 항상 응원합니다😄
Whenever I am out of my productive routine, I just go back to her channel and feel the need to clean my room and be productive again. ✨
Congratulations, Michelle on the 1M subs! You deserve it! 😊
i feel and do the exact same !!
Michelle its not always all about content, its also your vibe, you can literally sit there for 30 min doing nothing vlog, id still watch it lolol. Love you and congratulations on 1 million!!! ♥️♥️♥️
Finally I feel someone so relatable and authentic youtuber is out there and that's you Michelle !!!!
No hate to other content creators but their extremely overwhelming lifestyle shown on their channels brings whole new insecurities within the viewers.
Lots of Love towards Michelle. We love you for who you are ❤️
i started watching you when you had less than 100k and still in korea, so it’s just insane to me how much you’ve grown over the years!! you and your videos have been such a huge source of joy and inspiration to me, i genuinely look forward to your videos every week. so so proud of you and very excited to continue seeing you keep growing ❤️
I just pause the video for this ; I LOVE how your videos flow so naturally
and so true to yourself that bad comment are the less thing you should worry about.
My though literally when i saw you post is oh Michi i just love it. Congrats and thanks for give me this little chill moments.
“I have my hair done, and nowhere to go :)”
This is exactly why I love watching Michelle 😭 thank you for making videos, it’s healing 😊😊
Does anyone else watch Michelle’s videos twice when it comes out? To those who says her videos are too short… 🤭 ‘literally have one friend that I hang out with’ that’s so relatable!! p.s. Michelle, your skin looks amazing!! ❤️
“I hang out w one friend and then I’m at home horizontal watching kdramas with Dobby” SO RELATABLE LOL I’m the same I’ve gotten more accustomed to wanting to stay at home and rlly like being a homebody hahaha 😆 congrats on 1 million Michelle! Your the one of the only TH-camrs I look forward to every upload you do here on this platform. Your chill and relatable vlogs is what keeps me going when I’m in a mood. 😌♥️
1 milly baby :’) my goodness time flies. Feels like just yesterday you were a uni student in Korea vlogging your ramyeon haha ❤️ you deserve this!
congrats, Michelle! You deserve it all. Your sweetness and such awsome vibe has enchanted people from all over the continet, even here in Brasil! its was also so comforting to hear brazilian music in your video 🥰✨
dude like... i discovered u recently and i can't believe it took youtube SO LONG to recommend your channel like, this is life-altering content right here. this is #1 favorite channel in all of youtube
I've been following you since you moved to nyc and. I felt that i'm watching a journal of my closed friend. Every times you moved to a new apartment or faced all those problems, it was like I've been through with you and :-). I'm so touched and happy for you. You really deserve more 🌈
Watching you grow ever since you moved from Korea to NY has been one of the best aspects of my life and an amazing thing to feel like I’m literally part of your life. Thank you so much Michelle for giving such a wonderful and joyous day experience! And congratulations for 1M 💛💛
2:30 am clip is relatable af. Michelle we love you for you.
If ever you read any hate comments simply block them, you deserve the peace the haters will never have. You're such a pure soul. Literally after a week watching your vlogs it helped me be more motivated in doing things.
Your skin looks amazing, I would love a skincare routine or favourite products that you use!
i really do aspire to be independent as you 🙆🏻♀️ your living alone series gives me so much comfort 🥰 have been following your channel since you were in college in korea and so soooo proud of your milestones!! keep being you Michelle 💪
Your vlogs are always so calm and real. I’ve never found any other TH-cam channel that posts content like yours. Congratulations on the milestone!! 🥰🎉
found your youtube channel was a beautiful coincidence, I really like your content ever since the first time I watched it. I like how you make your videos looks natural yet enjoyable. Such an inspiration & I'm very motivated by YOU! thankyou for existing.. Love from Indonesia
Who thinks she deserves so many more subs than 1 million
loved to hear about your healing journey during one of your gap years! we need more healing stories! and i love love LOVE all your videos! no matter what the content is (though i prefer cooking and vlogs) it just makes my heart glad to see you!
Michelle, thank you for including us along your Living Alone diaries in NYC. I subscribed to you about a year ago after binge watching your videos, and that was one of the best things I’ve done! Because then I found Esther and then Freesia’s channel. It definitely can get lonely living in a city (as a New Yorker myself), but keeping loved ones close to you is super important. I know you will find more friends (just use Dobby haha) !! Also, you’re literally such a great daughter and your aspirations for your immigrant parents hit home to me. You’re such an inspiration and I can’t wait to see more of the great things you accomplish for yourself
Congrats michelle on your 1M followers, love all of your video, always wait for your new video😍
I started following you early this month. I love your aesthetic and the tranquility in your life. Love your food diaries and your personal adventures of everyday life with your dog Dobby. You are my inspiration for when I move out of my parents house for the single and lonely life. Your life makes it look peaceful. ❤️
Would be cool to see Michelle do a Korean drama recommendation/review list !
And I love the living alone diaries 💜
Michelle, don't worry about those numbers! I've been a long time fan, but due to work(mid 20s career) and life in general I only have time to watch like once every two weeks, and I watch all the new uploads!
Im sure there's people in the same boat as me :)
요즘 영어공부 하느라 이것저것 영상보다 우연한 알고리즘에 이끌려서 구독했어요 매일 출퇴근길 프렌즈쉐도잉처럼 이 영상 틀어두고 그냥 듣고있어욤 목소리도 너무 좋고 일상영어 익히는데 도움될 것 같아요❤
First if all congrats!!! You deserve all the love in the world, your vlogs feel like a safe place.
Second of all, loved the Brazilian music, as a Brazilian I felt even more connected to you! Stay safe!
sim kkkkkk gostei de maaaais
Foi surpreendente para mim quando começou a tocar, amei
@@bombomneiresouza3165 simm, eu chequei duas vezes pra ver se era do vídeo mesmo kkkkkk
@@paulorubim3569 incrível kkkkk
Congratulations on 1 million Michelle! You deserve it. I love how genuine you are and I admire how much you’re doing for your family. I remember subscribing to your channel because you were so independent, doing all these things I couldn’t do myself. You inspire me to go out there and live my life. Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
You're just amazing Michelle
I love all you're videos they actually help teach me to be less afraid of my own camera and just be myself
Love all of your vlogs, everytime I feel like I'm chilling or hanging out with a friend. Makes me feel less lonely. 🌞
I feel so relieved knowing that that Michelle Choi also had went through emotional roller coaster stuff and thank you so much for always giving warmful words us!!!Sending my love from Japan♡
i just moved alone in new york for a semester abroad... your videos really help, i don't feel so alone now - thank you
Michelle, I’m being recently following you maybe 6 months ago, cuz what got catch my eye was ur title “living alone diaries” which is a different concept from different bloggers. Since that day that I subscribe to ur channel, I wanted to get know you from day 1 u started ur youtube channel. Haven’t yet finish watching all ur trajectory life. But sometime love jumping different year or dates of ur vlogs. Well, I’m really happy to jump this video of Q&A , it was really interesting questions u got which u really pull it off naturally . Love ur contents and the explanation of ur life. It does feels really good after hearing ur answers, keep up Michelle, please always be urself as u doing now, n authentic. U r awesome person and many success will come to ur way. Love that u r really cares about ur parents and friends. Many blessings for you Michelle.
Congrats Michelle!
Thank you!!♥️
Omg, huge congrats!!! I can’t wait to see what other projects you come up with as your channel grows 😊

Much love❤
30만 때부터 봐왔던거 같은데 정말 축하드려요💕

I wait for your video every time !!! It always makes me so happy, you are the only youtube channel i watch . Always save your videos for the evening to go sleep with a smile.
i loved that q&a session, your answers were so heartfelt
Congratulations on 1m! when watching the living alone diaries I feel like I just watching my best friend. I love your energy and vibes. so exciting to see what you do in the future!
I love you girl, your little videos are so cute including your dog
Literally been looking for youtubers to motivate me but stumbling on your channel much love xx
Soooo proud of u!! I'm in the late gang and joined when u had like 300-400k and i haven't missed a single vlog since then bc they're so lax and authentic and ur so funny and precious and real !!!! Luv u and congrats! 💖🎉 Well deserved
Oh I was feeling so alone in a big city, living by myself but seeing you calms my heart. Thank you for your channel ❤️
love you so dahling! hooked me on you girl! love all of it. learning a lot to be content with what I have!
Congratulations Michelle for hitting 1M. I enjoyed your videos a lot, it's just calming yet entertaining. I think 10-15minutes videos is better than making it longer. It's compact and enjoyable. Keep up the good work.
Congrats Michelle!! So happy for you!! I’m always using your video as a “get up” tool since I feel “I want to start my day” after watching your daily!! Thank you so much❤️
Finally!! A milestone you truly deserve! Congrats, Michelle 💕
I love you so much! Watching all of your videos makes me so happy! You’re the best
I remember finding you through your glass skin video! You only had 4,5 videos back then (i think?) and I subscribed because I just loved your energy.
But I was so happy when LAdiaries started especially because I love vlogs most. I’m so proud of you for how far you’ve come!
Love seeing your growth 🤍 congrats
When you say 아뜨거, I couldn't stop smiling because that's literally what I did in this morning.🤣
Yes indeed TH-cam analytics are mean 😢
i really love it when u’re talking to the cam it feels i’m having a conversation w u even tho not but it’s so calming u just stop all of my thoughts and worries . does it seems me weird idk i’ve said it already
I love watching your videos. I am single in Texas and its so different here than in NY and its great to see how life and living is there in New York for a single gal.
Feeling behind in life?! GIRL U JUST HIT ONE MILL SUBS
can i just say that i'm so proud of you for getting 1M subs!!! I've been a loyal subscriber since early 2018 and it amazes me to witness all your milestones in life. to more years with you, Michelle!!!
